On a side note these contracts make it’s easier to swallow the eagles/9ers plan of rolling with whatever rookie you can make it work with and hoping they develop.

I saw a stat that Steve Young had been the highest percentage of a team's salary to win a SB at like 13%, before Mahomes did it this year at 18%... and now it jumps to 22%.
Of course, he's beaten Allen and Burrow on their rookie contracts and who knows what percentage they'll end up at.
